I remember there were a discussion a few weeks back concerning bit and byte ordering. I'm not sure if there were any conclusion there but a similiar discussion just took place on the 6tisch IETF mailing list where they seem to have come to a conclusion. I will not copy and paste and try to explain the final conclusion they came to, that would probably just introduce more questions ;) ...instead I leave you with a link to the first email in the thread. https://mailarchive.ietf.org/arch/search/?email_list=6tisch&gbt=1&index=0cQxU9tOmxf5CkPtrULOFyIJbzo Hope this can help anyone that isn't following that mailing list.
